Joss Whedon brought Spike to "Angel" in season 5 to create a dynamic character arc that would explore themes of redemption and the complexity of morality. Spike's presence added depth to the narrative, allowing for engaging interactions with both Angel and the rest of the cast, particularly through his evolving relationship with Buffy. Additionally, Spike's popularity from "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" helped to attract viewers and maintain interest in "Angel," particularly during its final season.

Why was spike brought back in s1 of angel when in Buffy he was still alive until season 7 i was told that angel season 1 was around about Buffy season 4 so he is in season 4 of Buffy alive?

Spike made an appearance in season 1 of Angel, attempting to obtain a magical artifact that would make him invulnerable; this story line is a crossover from Buffy season 4 where Spike is very much "alive" (as in, undead) and soulless.Spike does not join the cast of Angel full time until season 5, which aired the next year after Buffy had ended. His appearance in Angel is a continuation of his character arc's final moments in "Chosen", the series finale of Buffy, where he is returned to L.A. first as a ghost, then as a corporeal vampire (and with his soul).


Does spike and Buffy together in angel season?

Buffy and Spike never appear together in any episode of Angel; they appeared in separate episodes of Angel season 1, but were not a "couple" at that time. During the brief periods in Buffy's 6th and 7th seasons when the two were together, neither appears on Angel. Spike is a main cast member for Angel's 5th and final season, and there is a single episode in which he and Angel go to Rome to rescue Buffy from a demon. However, the girl they think is Buffy is never seen beyond the top of her head, on a crowded dance floor, and it is revealed in the Buffy continuation comic books that the girl was a decoy anyway.

Is Buffy mentioned in angel season 5?

No. Season 7 focuses mainly on the mental and emotional relationship of Spike and Buffy. There are a few cute and very innocent physical scenes. If you want to see physicality, I recommend watching the sixth season. Many physical scenes, that season.


In Buffy does Spike come back from the dead?

Unfortunately, Tara dies when Warren pays a surprise visit to Buffy's house and shoots Buffy and Tara in season six. Willow begs to get her back, but the gods argue that she died a natural death. Tara was never brought back to life, but the dramatic effect her death left on Willow lingered in her. But while speaking at the Wizard World Chicago Convention in August 2004, Joss Whedon claimed he had planned to bring Tara back from the dead at the end of Season Seven. According to Whedon, the episode would have centered around Buffy being granted one "life-altering" wish. Buffy would have spent the whole episode trying to decide what she wanted to do with the wish (including, possibly, restoring Angel's humanity). The episode would have ended with Buffy telling Willow that she'd just gotten a great new pair of shoes, and when Willow asked her if she used up her wish on new shoes, Buffy would have said, "No, silly!" and stepped aside to reveal Tara. This plan was abandoned when Amber Benson was unavailable for filming. At the 2007 Comic-Con, he referred to this idea as well.
